For public safety reasons and anticipated large crowds, Government Center Station will be closed to customers beginning at 9:30 a.m. with Blue and Green Line trains bypassing the station. Blue Line connections can be made at nearby Bowdoin and State Stations. Green Line connections can be made at Park Street and Haymarket Stations, a short walk from City Hall Plaza.

Commuter Rail trains are experiencing heavy ridership, which has delayed Middleboro Line Train 010 and prompted additional inbound trains to be run on several lines.

Additionally, Bus Routes 9, 39, 43, 55, Silver Line 5, 92, and 93 will be detoured around the parade route as the parade takes place.

How Many People:

City officials have said the typical crowds are between 500,000 and 1 million people. This parade is expected to draw a crowd from the larger side of that scale because of the dramatic fashion of the team's Super Bowl victory.
